Back when I made my 30 things to do before 30, I had a big line item on there to figure out what or how I felt about kids. You know, those people that happen when a boy loves a girl, and they have unprotected sex? Yeah, that. And then… nothing. I never mentioned it… Continue reading Baby or not?

Period Essentials
I almost started this post with an apology to my male readers who don’t need the intimate details of my menstrual cycle. But then I stopped. One, because I realized that my readers are smart enough to not waste their time with articles that are not relevant to them. Secondly, I am too old to… Continue reading Period Essentials
Another tale of woe on women and media..
If you pay the slightest bit of attention to modern feminism or well, just about anything else, it is not going to shock you that in both the media and social norms push women to ideas of perfection. Be classy, smart, well educated, and get ahead in your career all while managing a pristine Pinterest… Continue reading Another tale of woe on women and media..
What I Hate About Pinterest
I don’t actually hate Pinterest. In fact, I love it and it consumes far more of my time than it should. But there is a lot of criticism out there about Pinterest ranging from people who dislike it to people who all out hate it. Personally, I think there are some legitimate reasons to dislike… Continue reading What I Hate About Pinterest

But I wanted to carefully think about and consider what I wanted to say. I struggled because I don’t have a… Continue reading Body Image Introduction
All the Married Ladies
My most recent trip to Chicago was actually a business trip for my husband that we tacked on a little pleasure. The trip allowed me a lot of time for reflection on what I used to do before my Z. days… the old days of dating and singleness. While there is a lot to be… Continue reading All the Married Ladies
Kentucky Women’s Book Festival
Guys, I had the best weekend. This weekend was the KY women’s book festival which is held at U of L and it was absolutely wonderful. Smallish book festivals are often ignored because they don’t have the big headliner names, but they also can be a wonderful chance to find some new authors to read.… Continue reading Kentucky Women’s Book Festival
you’re awesome, have another
There are moments in life.. moments where you're "that wife". The moment where you drank the most mimosas at brunch, threw back the most cocktails, most of the bottle of wine (and the second). And you're sad. "Why am I that wife?" "Is my husband embarrassed?" "I'm like 32, why am I buzzed after brunch?" Stop. Seriously.… Continue reading you’re awesome, have another
Pride Cometh before a Fall and Subsequent Drinking of a Bottle of Wine
I had a flat tire today… massively flat. As in, nope you are not going to put air in this and drive it to the shop. You are going to make an emergency stop in a church parking lot and call your husband for help and then try and change the tire yourself. In the… Continue reading Pride Cometh before a Fall and Subsequent Drinking of a Bottle of Wine
